Leonard Nimoy was more than a colleague—he was a friend, an ally, and my political soulmate. Leonard played a half-human, half-Vulcan officer—a being caught between two worlds. Yet in his own life, he was perhaps the most profoundly human person I have ever known. When Star Trek became an animated series, the studio hired only a few of us to reprise our roles, excluding Nichelle Nichols and myself. Leonard looked at that decision and simply said, "No."

Dammit people, add alt text to your images! So many times I see awesome art or cool comics, but can't boost it, because it's not accessible.

@_elena I thought this was you when the toot slowly appeared while scrolling up. 🙂
I'd like to know people's opinions on this. I enjoying following people who post in a variety of languages. I also know I have followers who appreciate alt text in images and do my best not to boost images that have no alt text.
What do you do when the image has alt text but is in another language? To boost it as I would like to would mean those using screen readers are disadvantaged, as far as I know. To boost and comment with English alt text would seem rude to the original poster who has already included alt text. (I'm only using English as an example there as it's the one I usually communicate in). Do screen readers have their own translation functions by any chance?
If you're someone who uses a screen reader what do you do when you come across alt text in a language you don't understand?

I need you to paint a cat. You know what a cat looks like, right?
👩🎨 uh, of course!

Salut Piaille,
Je suis une professionnelle de l'animation qui cherche à faire connaître ses BDs et illustrations sur un réseau que j'espère plus charitable que d'autres envers les petits comptes.
Passionnée d'histoire, de rôlisme, de culture japonaise entre 1000 autres choses, mes centres d'intérêt se retrouvent dans mes travaux, parfois avec humour ou une pointe d'érotisme.
Ma BD "Ilario à la campagne", qui raconte les aventures mortelles d'un assassin ingénu, recherche activement un éditeur.
A très vite j'espère !

@marion_leblanc bienvenue Marion et bravissima pour tes magnifiques illustrations ! (en plus un grand merci pour le #AltText)
I've been very envious of all the beautiful mushroom photos. Since I'm not planning any hikes, this is my contribution. Mushrooms from the farmers market! Are they outrageously expensive compared to where you are? #NYC #AltText #Photography #mushrooms #Fungi
Please Alt-Text your own images, thanks.
Searchability, translation, inclusion, explication.
